How long will it take a Muscovy to go broody?

All of mine are 19 weeks old today. I need some chicks hatched out this spring.......

Does not take them long at all...............when they are ready.

Not every muscovy hen goes broody, just give them time - keep them well fed with fresh water. Once they start laying, you might get a hen (or all of them) to go broody.


Good luck

I am trying to get one to brood for me right now

She's interested but not quite there yet. it's only been a few days since i put the eggs in for her though.
